âYou want to leave?â
Lan Xiao, even if you leave this place, he wonât be able to. â
âAre you going to go against us for a piece of trash?â
Jin Hao said. His eyes were filled with disdain and contempt when he looked at Li Lingtian. A Revered Martial Artist would not have minded a junior but he despised a useless person who could not cultivate.
âLeave me behind?â
âYou overestimate yourself.â
âDidnât you want Lan Xiaoman to marry your junior?â
â As long as we survive under her sword, Iâll agree. Otherwise, shut up. â
Li Lingtian turned around to look at Jin Hao and Bai Lantian amidst everyoneâs astonished gazes. The disdain in his eyes intensified.
In Bai Lantian and Jin Haoâs eyes, the disdainful look was an insult.
Everyone was stunned.
Li Lingtian was stunned by his words. How could he allow Lan Xiaoman, a Warrior King, to fight a Supreme Realm? Was he stupid?
âYouâre accompanying me too?â
âTrash, youâre courting death.â
â Trash. Not only trash, but also an idiot and a lunatic. â
â Shameless. You donât have the ability to go up, yet you sent a Martial King girl to die. â
âIf youâre a man, go up yourself.â
âYeah, even if you donât have the ability to go up, donât let others go up and die.â
âHow embarrassing.â
Instantly, everyone looked at Li Lingtian with disdain in their eyes.
Bai Lantian and Jin Hao were both furious. They had been scolded by a piece of trash for overestimating themselves.
âSenior Brother Li, youâ¦â
Lan Xiaoman did not expect Li Lingtian to push her out of the room. She was utterly shocked as she looked at Li Lingtian suspiciously.
In the end, he looked at Li Lingtian with a puzzled expression.
âGo up, Iâll help you.â
Donât you want Lan Ling Valley to hold their head high and vent their anger for them? â
A faint smile appeared on Li Lingtianâs face once again. This was the second time he smiled since arriving at Lanling Valley.
As he spoke, he looked at Lan Xiaoman seriously.
She felt that she had been too meddlesome and shouldnât have caused trouble.
However, he had been in Lanling Valley for so long, so it was time for him to do something.
However, he would not easily make a move. These people would not let him make a move.
âYes, of course I do.â
âBut they are all Martial, Martial Honors.â
Lan Xiaoman answered Li Lingtian without hesitation. However, her heart began to tremble when she thought of the Revered Martial Artists.
â If you choose to believe me, then go up. If you donât believe me, then donât go up. â
Li Lingtian replied indifferently. His expression did not change but his tone was icy cold.
This cold tone made people feel extremely cold.
âAlright, I believe you.â
The expression on Lan Xiaomanâs face changed. She did not notice it earlier. She did not expect to feel a little uncomfortable when Li Lingtian turned cold.
He did not believe Li Lingtianâs words at all because a Warrior King was no match for a Revered Martial Artist.
Now, even if he had to die, he would die for Li Lingtianâs words.
After saying that, he walked up the stairs step by step.
The people in the square were all stunned, and a trace of regret appeared in their hearts.
âXiao Mang.â
âYou.â
Lan Xiao was enraged when he saw Li Lingtian instigating Lan Xiaoman to commit suicide. However, he did not know how to blame Li Lingtian nor did he dare to.
This situation had always been seen by the people of the Maple Wood Sect.
The other forces who were watching the show also began to suspect.
âDamn it, this is preposterous.â
âDo you think I wonât kill you?â
When Bai Feng and Jin Hao saw Lan Xiaoman really walk up the steps, their expressions changed drastically.
This was an insult. Even a Martial King who was called up by a piece of trash dared to face them, and they had lost all their face.
âIgnorant.â
Li Lingtian looked indifferently at the two Revered Martial Artists on the stairs. He felt relieved when he saw that the two Revered Martial Artists were stuck in a dilemma.
As soon as he finished speaking, he flipped his hand, and a jade flute appeared in his hand.
Then, he placed the jade flute by his lips, and an ethereal flute sound rang out.
The sound of the flute was ethereal, but it was as beautiful as the sound of nature.
There was still no change in Li Lingtianâs aura. He was just like an ordinary person.
However, when the flute played, Lan Xiaoman, who was on the steps, moved. The longsword in her hand seemed to be waving along with the flute, and there was no trace of its trajectory.
âSwoosh, swoosh.â
âSwoosh, swoosh.â
âSisi, Sisi.â
Endless sword silks burst out from the top of the steps, almost covering the entire step.
Lan Xiaomanâs figure also moved up the steps. When she threw her long sword, endless sword silks burst out. The terrifying sword silks cut the space into pieces.
Everyone in the square was stunned by this scene.
The five Supreme Realm experts of the Maple Wood Sect were also dumbfounded at this moment. They had never expected a Martial King to unleash such a domineering attack.
The sound of the flute continued to ring out, rising and falling continuously. Lan Xiaoman was completely immersed in the sound of the flute, and the long sword in her hand swung out casually.
âBang!â
âBang!â
âKacha.â
âKacha.â
âHu, hu.â
Immediately, Jin Hao and Bai Lantian were both incomparably shocked.
He could no longer care about his dignity as he quickly flashed away, trying to leave the stairs. However, every time the two of them were about to leave the stairs, Li Lingtianâs flute tune would change and Lan Xiaomanâs longsword would shoot out terrifying sword silks.
The two Supreme Realm experts were attacking passively on the steps for a moment. They could only have the chance to defend.
Li Lingtianâs flute sound seemed to have taken control of Lan Xiaoman. With the flute sound, Lan Xiaomanâs aura was elevated. The Supreme Realmâs pressure and terrifying True Essence were not affected at all.
All the experts were stunned.
However, Li Lingtianâs body did not have the slightest trace of True Essence, aura, or presence.
Only the beautiful sound of the flute was terrifying.
On the steps, destructive sword silks were crisscrossing, and energy flew everywhere.
âPfft.â
âPfft.â
With two muffled sounds, Lan Xiaoman landed on the steps, and the sound of the flute disappeared.
Lan Xiaoman left the stairs with a dazed look in her eyes. When she left the stairs, Jin Hao and Bai Lantian fell from the sky.
âJunior Sister Lan.â
âJunior Sister Lan.â
On the square, thousands of martial artists were stunned.
They didnât know which disciple from the Lan Ling Valley was the one who shouted out excitedly. Immediately, the disciples of the Lan Ling Valley cheered excitedly.
All of this was beyond the imagination of all the experts.
A Martial King had defeated two Revered Martial Artists so easily.
Even though they were suspicious of Li Lingtian, he had never unleashed any True Essence or aura. From head to toe, he was just an ordinary person who could not cultivate.
Naturally, they would not be able to tell.
Li Lingtian defeated the two Revered Martial Artists with the sound of the flute and used Lan Xiaoman as a cover.
Otherwise, with Lan Xiaomanâs cultivation base, any pressure from a Martial Honor would have crushed her into ashes.
With his cultivation at the Seventh Heaven of the Martial Saint Realm, he could kill a Martial God instantly. He did not need to use any True Essence or pressure to defeat a Martial Honor.
âNot bad.â
Li Lingtian waited for Lan Xiaoman to come before him before reaching out to pat her shoulder.
With an encouraging look on her face, Lan Xiaoman was jolted awake by Li Lingtianâs pat. She looked at Li Lingtian in confusion.
Then, he looked at the two Supreme Realm experts on the steps and his heart trembled.
However, he did not dare to say it out loud at this moment. He forcefully suppressed the shock in his heart.
âWhat a terrifying and mysterious sword technique.â
âWhat a powerful sword silk.â
âThis is the skill above, but itâs so magical.â
âLanling Valley actually has such a powerful figure.â
âWhatâs going on?â
All the Powerhouses were jolted awake. The shock on their faces did not diminish as they stared at Li Lingtian and Lan Xiaoman in horror.
They were all suspicious of Li Lingtian. Lan Xiaomanâs defeat of the two Revered Martial Artists must have something to do with Li Lingtianâs flute. However, Li Lingtian did not possess any cultivation.
Valley Master, letâs go. â
Li Lingtian spoke again with a calm expression. He waved the jade green flute in his hand like a scholar.
His voice woke Lan Xiao up. Although he was shocked, as a Revered Martial Artist and the master of a valley, he reacted quickly. The shock on his face also calmed down, and no changes could be seen.
The group of people left the Maple Wood Sectâs square, leaving behind a shocked crowd.
The disciples of the Lanling Valley were extremely happy along the way.
Although she did not get first place, Lan Xiaoman, who was at the Martial King Realm, had defeated two Martial Honors from Qingfeng Valley and Golden Wing Villa. This was a slap to all the forces.
However, Lan Xiaoman and Lan Xiao remained silent.
Li Lingtianâs expression was calm as if nothing had happened.
When they returned to Lanling Valley, everyone returned to their own quarters. Li Lingtian also returned to the pavilion.
However, an hour after Li Lingtian returned to the pavilion, Lan Xiao and Lan Xiaoman arrived. Li Lingtian sat cross-legged in meditation as if he did not notice their arrival.
There was no aura on his body, nor was there any technique to circulate his cultivation.
However, to Lan Xiao and his companion, Li Lingtian was extremely mysterious and powerful.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Lan Xiao had asked Lan Xiaoman about Li Lingtianâs recent changes when the father and daughter returned to Lanling Valley.
The father and daughter duo analyzed the situation during the Maple Wood Sectâs competition for a long time before they began to suspect Li Lingtian.
They suspected that Li Lingtian was a powerhouse with a cultivation base. Moreover, he was a heaven-defying powerhouse who was so powerful that even a Martial Honor could not discern his cultivation base.
With that thought in mind, the two of them hurried to Li Lingtianâs pavilion.
Seconds ticked by but Li Lingtianâs eyes were still closed. He completely ignored the duoâs anxiety.
â Calm down. Warriors must cultivate their hearts at the same time. â
After an unknown period of time, Li Lingtian uttered a faint voice but he did not open his eyes.
After saying that, there was no more movement, as if she had fallen asleep.
This situation puzzled Lan Xiao and his daughter. They were increasingly aware of Li Lingtianâs mysteriousness.
At the same time, she felt that Li Lingtianâs words were reasonable but she could not be at ease at this moment.
